opinions needed
OK, droppin in a Lokar shifter. My options are the Nostalgia, and the 23 inch single bend. I'm not sure which I think looks 'right'. The stepside will be slammed, satin blue with flames, either big inch rallies or AR Salt flat specials. I can't decide whether the nostalgia shifter looks too 'old school'. what do ya think?

Personally, I think the longer one looks sweet. Very old school, yet still cool looking, especially with a satin paint job.

The longer one would look better in your truck the way your doing it. If I went went with the floor shifter, thats the one I would use!

That would look great!! I prefer a larger shifter in truck personally. I currently have a 1 bent 14" long Hurst Indy shifter in my truck that will be hitting the scrap pile as soon as my 42" rat rod shifter is all done and painted. I'll be throwing gears at shoulder height
